I love names that have an earthy unisex feel. That being said we’re stumped on baby #2. I love the feel of [name_u]Colbie[/name_u] [name_u]Finch[/name_u] but unsure of spelling.
Our other option is to honor dh’s mom whose middle was [name_f]Ann[/name_f].
I hate to be the first poster and negative but I’m really not a fan of [name_u]Colbie[/name_u], sorry. I do love [name_u]Finch[/name_u] as the mn though - or even [name_u]Scout[/name_u]!
I like lots of [name_f]Ann[/name_f] derivatives but they’re not generally unisex. However, some I really like that seem quite “earthy” and aren’t too frilly are:
[name_f]Anneli[/name_f]
[name_f]Annick[/name_f]
[name_f]Annika[/name_f] or [name_f]Anneke[/name_f]
[name_f]Anouk[/name_f]
[name_f]Anya[/name_f]
[name_f]Hanne[/name_f]
[name_u]Marian[/name_u] or [name_u]Marion[/name_u]
[name_f]Nina[/name_f]
[name_u]Vivian[/name_u]
[name_u]Colbie[/name_u] and [name_u]Colby[/name_u] are equally cute spellings, but the -ie feels more feminine to me.
If you’re not sold here are a couple of ideas:
[name_u]Sailor[/name_u] [name_u]Gray[/name_u]
[name_f]Anne[/name_f] [name_u]Rowen[/name_u]
[name_u]Jude[/name_u] [name_f]Lark[/name_f]
[name_u]Hunter[/name_u] [name_f]Rose[/name_f]
[name_u]Sawyer[/name_u] [name_f]Breeze[/name_f]
[name_u]Alix[/name_u] [name_f]Annabel[/name_f]
[name_u]Wren[/name_u] [name_u]Emerson[/name_u]
[name_u]Emmett[/name_u] [name_f]Anne[/name_f]
[name_u]Piper[/name_u] [name_u]Jay[/name_u]
[name_u]Julianne[/name_u] [name_u]Ryan[/name_u]
What is your older child’s name, if you don’t mind sharing?
I don’t love [name_u]Colbie[/name_u]/[name_u]Colby[/name_u] – it’s in the category of names for me that seem used more often for pets than people, and it reminds me of colby cheese. But it’s definitely usable, and I prefer the [name_u]Colby[/name_u] spelling because -ie seems too much like a nickname.
I think [name_u]Colbie[/name_u] [name_u]Finch[/name_u] is cute.
[name_u]Colby[/name_u] makes me think of a brand of cheese, [name_u]Finch[/name_u] is sweet though.
I like the suggestion of [name_f]Annika[/name_f] [name_u]Finch[/name_u].
I really like [name_u]Colbie[/name_u] on a girl - with this spelling. I think its sweet and quirky, but I would definitely opt to use a more feminine middle name!
